Weird authentication popup coming up on my Drupal 6 site

Hi everyone,

When I go to my Drupal 6 professional blog, <a href="http://awebfactory.com.ar" title="http://awebfactory.com.ar">http://awebfactory.com.ar</a> , I
get a popup (whether logged in or not) that says:

"Authentication required" A username and password are being requested by
<a href="http://dc2009.drupalcon.org" title="http://dc2009.drupalcon.org">http://dc2009.drupalcon.org</a>. The site says: "drupalcon security lockdown"

When I hit cancel, everything is OK, until I access another page and the
same thing happens.

It's Drupal 6, and I have just upgraded Drupal and all modules to latest
release with no exceptions. I deleted the .htaccess and replaced it with a
new one from the Drupal 6 release.

How is it that new Drupal user is given CVS access to ban countries

Regarding the _rigorous_ CVS rights granting process, how is it that new
user <a href="http://drupal.org/user/701600" title="http://drupal.org/user/701600">http://drupal.org/user/701600</a> is rushed through that process, and
allowed to infect the Drupal codespace with a module banning countries from
using a Drupal site???

The offending module: <a href="http://drupal.org/project/countryban" title="http://drupal.org/project/countryban">http://drupal.org/project/countryban</a> goes against all
democratic sentiment and should be taken down immediately, and this
individual, who wishes to do the work of those who would restrict internet
access based on origin of country, should have his CVS rights taken from him
immediately.

Regarding migration of lapetus

Hi there,

I have two reseller accounts with Site5, one on lapetus (awebfactory.com.ar)
and one on lithium (mentorworks.com.ar).

lithium only started today and already I have received a mail telling me
that the transfer is 50% complete, and informing me of the future server
name and nameservers.

However, lapetus starting weeks ago, and I still have not received any word
at all about the migration progress.

Can you inform me as to the status of lapetus?

Thanks,

Victor Kane
